Description:

This glass carries the name of a famous French wine-growing region, and is ideally suited to the Gewürztraminer grape variety for which it is renowned.

However, a wide range of other elegant, medium-bodied wines with low acidity are shown at their best in this glass. Its shape enhances fruit, and also the subtle mineral elements so typical of many Sauvignon Blancs.

The size of the glass has been fine-tuned to concentrate the aromas of freshly-cut grass and elderberry flowers characteristic of such wines, while gently interweaving their sweet, smoky notes with more earthy mineral elements.

Swiss white wines, which traditionally undergo malolactic fermentation, show very well in this glass, which by bringing the earthier side of their character to the fore gives them additional expressiveness and length.
